+/** Timer class for one-second resolution timers
+ * InspTimer provides a facility which allows module
+ * developers to create one-shot timers. The timer
+ * can be made to trigger at any time up to a one-second
+ * resolution. To use InspTimer, inherit a class from
+ * InspTimer, then insert your inherited class into the
+ * queue using Server::AddTimer(). The Tick() method of
+ * your object (which you should override) will be called
+ * at the given time.
